This book presents a multidimensional, psychosocial and critical
understanding of poverty by bringing together studies carried out
with groups in different contexts and situations of deprivation in
Brazil, Mexico, Paraguay, Nicaragua and Spain. The book is divided
in two parts. The first part presents studies that unveil the
psychosocial implications of poverty by revealing the processes of
domination based on the stigmatization and criminalization of poor
people, which contribute to maintain realities of social
inequality. The second part presents studies focused on strategies
to fight poverty and forms of resistance developed by individuals
who are in situations of marginalization.The studies presented in
this contributed volume depart from the theoretical framework
developed by Critical Social Psychology, Community Psychology and
Liberation Psychology, in an effort to understand poverty beyond
its monetary dimension, bringing social, cultural, structural and
subjective factors into the analysis. Psychological science in
general has not produced specific knowledge about poverty as a
result of the relations of domination produced by social
inequalities fostered by the capitalist system. This book seeks to
fill this gap by presenting a psychosocial perspective with
psychological and sociological bases aligned in a dialectical way
in order to understand and confront poverty. Psychosocial
Implications of Poverty - Diversities and Resistances will be of
interest to social psychologists, sociologists and economists
interested in multidimensional studies of poverty, as well as to
policy makers and activists directly working with the development
of policies and strategies to fight poverty.
